South Wales Events - June

With two vibrant cities, miles of coast, lush rural landscapes and summer round the corner, South Wales is the place to be this June!

Urdd National Eisteddfod

★ Monday 29 May to Saturday 3 June 2017 ★ ★ Maes, Pencoed CF35 5LG ★

Attracting over 90,000 visitors every year, the Urdd National Eisteddfod is one of Europe’s largest youth touring festivals. Through the week, over 15,000 children and young adults compete in categories such as singing, dancing and performing, as a solo or in groups. To get the privilege of competing in the Eisteddfod, these young and talented people would need to compete in local and regional rounds first. Watch them perform in the pavilion in the centre of the Eisteddfod which seats 1,800 people. As well as watching the performances of children and young adults there will also be over 200 stalls for you to wander around, and activities galore for the family such as biking, climbing, funfair, live bands and celebrity children’s shows.

X Music Festival

Situated in the beautiful Bute Park just beyond Cardiff Castle, this two day music festival is made up of world famous artists and attracts more than 30,000 people. This year, the city centre event organisers want to make it even bigger and better than in previous years!
